lyrics

sick of seeing candle light
when i close my eyes at night
those shadows on the wall
seem to creep

nothing is what it seems
not a nightmare, not a dream
those shadows get so tall
and appear so grotesque and obscene
looking at me

but I can handle this
sick of all this bummed out shit
sick of the doom and gloom
sick of the evening news
i gotta open up my mind
i'm so tense all the time
a string about to snap
I hope I can handle that

i always try to do my best
only got myself to impress but most of all
i'm never pleased
i'll do something embarrassing
make a stupid comparison between myself
and someone who's got it worse then me
yet still they are happy

but I can take the hit
not whats behind that fist
not sure what I can do
when they are hurting too
i always cross the line
when I say what's on my mind
so I try to remember that
before they try to ask
